dc.description.abstractThe latest report of the OECD Health Policy Studies stated that in 2015 the highest rates of antimicrobial resistance (around 35% in Turkey, Korea and Greece) were seven times higher than the lowest rates among its member countries. As the OECD country with the highest rate of resistance (38.8%), despite a 15-year hospital antibiotic restriction programme, Turkey is in urgent need of revising its policies and drawing an effective action plan to reverse the current trend. In this commentary we review previous measures taken to tackle antimicrobial overuse and resistance in Turkey and discuss their effectiveness.
